Desert Fence Busting
Great day removing legacy barbed wire with Desert Fence Busters. This is a powerful collaboration among Arizona Fish and Game, Friends of Ironwood National Monument, and many other local partners to create wildlife corridors in the Sonoran Desert. The seven teams, with 48 total workers took down about 2.5 miles of unused fencing. Tucson Audubon Society also capped 52 "death pipes.” A local rancher removed most of the t-posts on which fencing was strung.
